This is the high downforce Version. The Rebellion R13 is powered by the Gibson GL458 4.5L V8 engine and runs the ORECA chassis. Although, unlike previous seasons, ORECA are heavily involved in the design and running of the car as with only one LMP1-hybrid (Toyota) competing in the 2018/19 season and with two Le Mans 24 hour races – the Rebellion R13 is ORECA’s best shot at claiming an overall Le Mans win.
‘We wanted to run a naturally aspirated engine and decided to go with the Gibson because the external dimensions of LMP1 engine are the same as the old LMP2 engine,’ highlights Bart Hayden, Team Manager at Rebellion Racing. ‘This meant that the installation was pretty straightforward because the only difference is the internals of the engine. Also, we were given the green light on this project quite late in 2017, so in the timescale we had, it was much easier to get this engine in than anything else.’
